Edinburgh Drug & Alcohol Rehab Clinics

Getting Help in Edinburgh

If you or a loved one are searching for rehab in Edinburgh due to an alcohol or drug addiction, it’s important you get the help you need. Becoming drug or alcohol free is a realistic goal but only if you have a good support network around you.

There are several rehab clinics in Edinburgh that provide world-class standards of care through bespoke rehab programmes. They can put in place a support network that will help you get drug or alcohol independent and stay that way.

For most people, admitting they need help is a massive step but the prospect of entering rehab is an even more daunting one. There is some confusion around what rehab involves and a lot of people put it off because of this. Unfortunately, this is a downward spiral and it is imperative you receive the help you need soon.

Our rehab centres in Edinburgh are perfectly placed to help you. They offer supervised detox programmes and proven therapies to help you recover properly. We invite you to call us on 0800 118 2892 and speak with our advisors to find out more.

Why Choose Rehab in Edinburgh?

Attractive pricing is also a standout feature of our alcohol rehab in Edinburgh. You can expect your treatment to be tailored to your budget and take into account your financial situation in the short and medium term.

Inpatient & Outpatient Rehab Programmes

As part of your rehabilitation programme you will be either an inpatient or outpatient.

Inpatients stay in rehab clinic accommodation and undergo a supervised detox. This is the safest and most effective type of rehab. It provides a safe environment for the patient and greatly restricts their access to drugs or alcohol.

Outpatients stay at home and undergo a home detox. They are asked to check in and will receive periodic visits from a nurse during the process so the detox can be monitored.

It is likely you will be an inpatient because it is the type of rehab with the highest success rate. However, outpatient rehab is the most affordable option. So it may better suit your budget.

When you call us on 0800 118 2892 and speak with one of our helpful advisors, we will recommend Edinburgh-based rehab programmes based on your circumstances. Your rehabilitation programme will be unique to you to help you achieve long-term abstinent recovery.

What Does Rehab Involve?

As part of rehab in Edinburgh, you will:

• Undergo a supervised/monitored detox
• Be prescribed withdrawal medications
• Receive therapy and counselling sessions
• Practice therapies like Cognitive Behavioural
• Therapy (CBT)
• Receive alternative therapies, such as holistic therapies like massage

Rehab is never an easy process, but the right help and support goes a long way to making it as manageable as possible. Our rehab clinics deliver help and support in the right places to help you beat your addiction and get you through rehab in the safest possible way.

After you have chosen a rehab centre in Edinburgh, you will attend a clinical assessment at that clinic, during which your physical and psychological health will be examined. Based on this assessment, your age, your addiction and your medical history, a rehab programme will be created by a doctor and a consultant therapist.

Once you have been admitted into clinic accommodation, the rehab process begins. The first stage is the detox stage. This will cleanse your body of the substances you are addicted to. You will be prescribed withdrawal medication to ease your symptoms and your condition will be monitored to make sure you receive the help you need.

After the detox stage, which can take a few weeks or a few months, you will stay on withdrawal medication for a little longer. You will then be weaned off this, until eventually, you are clean and sober of all drugs.

During this stage of rehab, you will attend therapy sessions and counselling. The most common therapies are Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT). These have an excellent track record for helping people overcome addiction and there’s a good chance they will help you too.

Of course, your journey doesn’t end when you are clean. Temptation will always be with you. The best you can do is control your urges and behaviour. Ongoing therapy is therefore recommended. With our rehab clinics, patients get one year of free aftercare. This will make all the difference and help you stay drug free for good.
